I have a hid kit...had it for about 3 weeks now...my opinions...
good points - hid kits are really good at lighting up the road, excellent for night time driving in country side. if you live in outer burbs / country
+++
average points - A black line which is fairly visible outside the car, but not really visibile inside the car or while driviing (very faint line)
The shadow at the front of the car from the hids (easily fixed by foggies)
Meh !
bad points -
how to replace the hid globes? easy to procure? might have to wait a week from ebay etc. cant just buy from the servo if you are in a pinch.
Lets face it, it is Illegal
cut holes in the cover of the headlights for cables to pass through to the ballasts. seal? dust ? crap in the housing now..
Longevity vs proper hids.? or even standard globes?
- - - -
overall :thumbsdown:
The bad points are fairly important to me as i dont have the skills to effectively fix or return my car to stock with this conversion. in the event of an issue arrising with them
hence i will be returning mine to stock soon
My suggestion is that with stuff like this, its probably better to get the car with all the bits you want, rather than mod it...because unless you are good with cars its probably more expensive to do stuff like this this way..
just my opinion
cheers
